Plums

Hi!

We have a plum tree in the yard.

 This year it gave us 3 plums.

(Here are two.)

They were delicious!

Outside the House

Hi!

We made it through the first week of school!  This week N starts after-school band on Wednesdays and C starts gymnastics on the same day.  That will be our busy day this year!

I took some pics around the yard last week.

(BTW, we started draining the pool yesterday.)

K was cleaning the rain barrel (green thing in middle of yard).  

Treehouse and Trailer. 

Raspberries- we got a lot this year! 

Transplanted honeysuckle is doing well. 

K is working on the plumbing for the new washer location,

so, we are cleaning out under the house. 

My dad cleared all this "driveway" area. 

Boat yard. 

Courtyard. 

The Virginia Creeper is creeping onto the storage room! 

Somebody needs to paint that door....

Have a great week! :-)

Summer Update

Hi!

Wow, has it been one month since I've posted?  I guess so!!

Summer is going by...

We're having  fun...

K and N got the back leveled for the pool.

The whole family went to Johnson Shore Inn with K's parents, his aunt and uncle, and sister and brother-in-law.

On the way home, we stopped by Charlottetown to go to the newly opened Freak Lunchbox.

I painted some metal and plastic stuff with black chalkboard spray paint.

C and I took a quick trip to the Halifax airport to pick up my dad and step mom.

We enjoyed the Tyne Valley Oyster Festival Dinner with my in-laws.

I volunteered at the canteen during the Oyster Fest Oyster Shucking Championship. 

My dad worked on clearing the side yard.

He's in blue, near the tree in the middle background. 

Here he is using the sling blade,

and mowing.

All cleared!

N did a computer camp last week in Alberton, where he learned about coding.

We are watching the Olympics in Rio.

Yesterday, we took C to Camp Keir where she'll be for the next 3 days!

I've worked a couple times in Summerside and Kensington.

Today, N started Sailing Camp.

Have a great day (week? (month?))!!
